re: Tj Yeldon fumble problems

I have a feeling my career is in a lot better shape than yours. You said qbs fumble more because they touch the ball more. Marshall had more than any qb in the sec except maybe Bo Wallace and he may have had more than him... Nick is a great player just get tired of hearing Yeldon is mr fumble machine when there are a lot of rbs that fumble as much or more. No one said lacy was a fumble machine yet there is 1 fumble difference. That's all.

Ok I'm going to break this down for you as if you're a 12 year old with dyslexia (which might be the case).


-Yeldon fumbles a good bit and usually at the worst possible time.
-No one said he isn't good. He is clearly very good.
-You can't compare fumbles of RBs to QBs because QBs touch the ball much, much more.
-Nick Marshall fumbled a good bit because he is a read option QB. If you know anything about football you know that just comes with that style of play. (I'm sure you have no clue what that is though)
-AJ McCarron didn't fumble a lot and was a great college QB, especially for your system. He also didn't fumble a lot because he was a pro-style QB and played behind some all-time great offensive lines. (do you know what Pro-Style means?)

The original point of your thread was to prove Yeldon doesn't fumble a lot. You clearly missed your mark there, so instead, you have drifted into a ridiculous argument that Nick Marshall is a fumble machine because he fumbles more than AJ McCarron who no one brought up in this thread besides you (and me now).


Even Alabama fans admit Yeldon had an issue holding onto the ball at critical times. I'm not sure why that bothers you so much.
